On today’s excursion we’ll first visit Lake Windermere - at over 10 miles long, it is England’s largest lake. Here you can take a steamer ride on the lake to enjoy the surrounding scenery. Later we continue on to the quaint village of Grasmere where you can visit Wordsworth’ Dove Cottage. It is also home of Sarah Nelson’s delicious Grasmere Gingerbread!

Excursion 2

We visit the small market town of Kirkby Lonsdale before travelling to Skipton via Ingleton. Skipton is another market town boasting an award-winning high street and has also been voted Best Large Speciality Market 2018! After time to explore, we return via Settle, one of the most picturesque towns in Ribblesdale, with its narrow streets and view of the 300ft Castleburg Crag which dominates the town.

Excursion 3

Enjoy a half day excursion to the historic town of Lancaster which offers a daily market. St George’s Quay and its Custom House on the River Lune offer a reminder that Lancaster was one a busy port handling more tonnage than Liverpool.
